Planning Board Recommends Rezoning of 814 Lindsay Street for Day‑time Psychosocial Rehabilitation Center
Summary
The Reidsville Planning Board voted July 15 to recommend rezoning 814 Lindsay Street from Residential R-6 to General Business to allow a psychosocial rehabilitation day program proposed by applicant Marlene Harrison; staff recommended approval and the board cited community need.
The Reidsville Planning Board on July 15 recommended approval of a rezoning petition for 814 Lindsay Street (Parcel 154288) to allow commercial use for a psychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) day program.
City staff presented the petition (Docket Z2026‑05), reporting the parcel is roughly 0.31 acres, with water and sewer service available within about 34 feet of the Lindsay Street right‑of‑way. Staff said the site is in Growth Management Area 3 (suburban), is not in a designated watershed stream, and that the rezoning to General Business is consistent with the Reidsville land development plan. Staff recommended approval.
Applicant Marlene Harrison, who said she took over a family care home at the property in 2019, described plans to close the residential care operation and convert the building into a psychosocial rehabilitation center offering daytime services approximately 9 a.m.–3 p.m., peer support, therapy sessions and a 24‑hour crisis phone line. She told the board building inspections indicated a maximum capacity of about 49 people but reiterated no overnight stays are planned.
Board members expressed support, saying the proposed services met a community need, and moved to recommend the rezoning. The motion carried; the board will forward its recommendation to City Council for final action.
